Your new VX5 (PRO)

Your package just arrived! 

We're just as excited as you are. But before you get started, there are a few important things to keep in mind: 

1. Tire Pressure

   While the scooter was in the box, the tires may have lost some air pressure. Riding with insufficient air pressure can cause a variety of damage to the scooter, since one of the tire's key functions is to provide suspension for the scooter.
   Be sure to inflate both tires before your first ride. Depending on the rider's weight, the tire pressure should be between 3.2 and 3.8 bar.
   
   

2. drum brake

   It is essential to adjust the scooter's mechanical drum brake to your weight before riding.
   To do this, turn the adjustment wheel at the bottom of the cable a little further up (the brake will then engage more firmly) or down (the brake will then engage more gently).
   
   

3. Regenerative brake

   The electric motor brake is a regenerative brake. When the scooter is turned off or the motor is running at low speed, the braking force is very low.
   For example, to prevent it from rolling away on a slope, always use the left Combined brake.
   
   

4. Connect with the VMAX App

   Our app offers you many Additional Information about your scooter, such as the mileage for your current trip or your battery level as a percentage, and also lets you quickly access settings like ride mode, kick start or zero start, and the lights. But don't worry: if you don't have your phone with you or lend the scooter to your friends, the app is purely optional component of your scooter. It works just fine even without your cell phone. 
   To connect your phone to your scooter via Bluetooth, you'll need the VMAX CONNECT app for Android or iOS. 
   
   

5. Immobilizer

   You can easily activate your scooter's immobilizer via the app. Your scooter will then electrically lock the rear wheel, so you don't have to worry about someone else just riding it away.
   However, you should only use the anti-theft lock if you can keep an eye on your scooter. If you move further away from your scooter, we definitely recommend a sturdy lock to use.
   
   

6. Kickstart or Zerostart

   That's what we call the scooter's two start-up modes. We recommend the kickstart mode especially for inexperienced riders. In this mode, the scooter won't start if you just twist the throttle; instead, it needs to be rolling first. In this mode, you start the scooter as if you were Kick scooter Ride, and don't press the gas until you're already moving and both feet are securely on the footrest.
   With a zero-start, the scooter starts moving from a standstill. Since the drive comes from the rear wheel, the front wheel can lift off the ground if you shift your weight to the back of the scooter.
   To switch between the two modes, simply go to the app's settings. 
   Alternatively, you can change the riding mode by quickly pressing the start-stop button on your scooter four times. 
   
   

7. Cruise Control

   To activate cruise control, press Press the on/off button 3 times quickly when the vehicle is running. After about 5 seconds of driving at a constant speed, cruise control engages.
   The stored speed is cleared when you activate either the turn signal or the brakes. To deactivate cruise control, press the On/Off button three times again. Use this feature only when the vehicle is stationary.
   
   

8. Eco/Sport Mode

   To switch between Eco and Sport modes, press Press the on/off button once briefly when the device is turned on. The change takes effect immediately and is shown on the display.
   Eco Mode: You're driving in a particularly fuel-efficient way—ideal for longer trips.
   Sport Mode: You have the full power of your VMAX e-scooter at your disposal.
